What were you two doing before

we put this little bundle together?

Well, I was a news commentator with

a small, but highly regarded program--

The News Behind the News

Behind the News.

Two hundred a week tops.

And you?

I was the Blueberry Muffin girl

on WHAM.

One and a quarter at the outside.

And what are you getting here?

- Five thousand a week.

- See what I mean?

- You've forgotten one thing,

haven't you, Mr. Twitchell?

- What's that?

- The contract.

- What contract?

A contract dated April 1 8 for five

straight years at five G's a week...

drawn up by the United States Broadcasting

Company and signed by Mr. and Mrs.--

That's it.

[ Clears Throat ]

Now I'll give you until noon to make up

your minds what you want to do next.

- You rockhead.

- Now just a minute--

You certainly handled

that one like a champion.

So why didn't you take over,

you're so smart?

You mean step in front

of Mr. Brains himself?

Yes. This is a free country.

We have free speech here.

- No one was holding his hand

over your mouth.

- Steve, please, we're on.

Now you keep out of this!

Who insisted that we sign

that contract Mr. and Mrs.?

I told you then we should

sign it individually. I told you--

What do you mean I insisted

upon signing it Mr. and Mrs?

It was your lawyer, that crook friend

of yours, who told me what to do.

I told you then it was

absolutely ridiculous--

Francis X. Moriarty is not a crook.

He's a very highly regarded Harvard man...

- and also one of the biggest

mouthpieces in New York.

- You're on, honey.

- and also one of the biggest

mouthpieces in New York.

- You're on, honey.

Holy Moses!

## [ ''There's No Place Like Home'' ]

9:
00 and a good good morning

to all America...

from that all-American couple,

The Glad Gladwyns.

From their cozy little nest

in the metropolis of dreams...

as American as mince pie

and sugar cookies...

Steve and Ramona Gladwyn bring you

at this hour every morning...

their own daily bag of fun,

gossip and helpful hints...

the latest from

the wonder world of New York.

So settle back for 1 5 minutes

of relaxation and diversion...

while we take you to the homey

little breakfast table of

Steve and Ramona Gladwyn.

- [ Ramona ] Good morning, darling.

- [ Steve ] Good morning, angel.

Oh, but you look so rested

this wonderful morning, sweetheart.

Yes, thanks to our luscious Pasternak

Factory Tested P*ssy-willow Mattress...

the mattress that takes

all of the guesswork out of sleeping.

So soft, so restful.

And only $1 7.50

at Muckenfuss Brothers.

[ Steve ] Yes. Only the hearts of

the tender p*ssy-willows are used.

- Breakfast ready, Macushla?

- Yes, Papa mia.
